A p-local finite group consists of a finite p-group S, together with a pair of categories which encode ``conjugacy'' relations among subgroups of S, and which are modelled on the fusion in a Sylow p-subgroup of a finite group. It contains…
Sofic and hyperlinear groups are the countable discrete groups that can be approximated in a suitable sense by finite symmetric groups and groups of unitary matrices. These notions turned out to be very deep and fruitful, and stimulated in…
Let G be a finite group with Sylow p-subgroup P. We show that the character table of G determines whether P has maximal nilpotency class and whether P is a minimal non-abelian group. The latter result is obtained from a precise…
Let $G$ be a finite almost simple group and let $H$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. As a special case of a theorem of Zenkov, there exist $x,y \in G$ such that $H \cap H^x \cap H^y = 1$. In fact, if $G$ is simple, then a theorem of Mazurov…
We study the problem of realizing families of subgroups as the set of stabilizers of configurations from a subshift of finite type (SFT). This problem generalizes both the existence of strongly and weakly aperiodic SFTs. We show that a…
Let $M$ be a locally symmetric irreducible closed manifold of dimension $\ge 3$. A result of Borel [Bo] combined with Mostow rigidity imply that there exists a finite group $G = G(M)$ such that any finite subgroup of $\text{Homeo}^+(M)$ is…
Let F be a field of characteristic not 2 and assume all algebras are over F. We establish several conjugacy theorems for the special linear Lie algebra sl_2 over an F-algebra which is a UFD. We find the structure of the full automorphism…
The background of this paper is the following: search of the minimal systems of generators for this class of group which still was not founded also problem of representation for this class of group, exploration of systems of generators for…
For $G$ a finite group, one way to construct irreducible quandle representations over $\mathbb{C}$ of the conjugacy quandle $Conj(G)$ is by taking the product of an irreducible linear group representation of $G$ by what we call a quandle…
Let $W$ be a finite reflection group, either real or complex, and $S_\ell$ a Sylow $\ell$-subgroup of $W$. We prove the existence of a semidirect product decomposition of $N_W(S_\ell)$ in terms of the unique parabolic subgroup of $W$…
We describe the subracks of the conjugacy classes of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,q)$ based on Dickson's theorem on subgroups of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,q)$. All minimal non-abelian subracks of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,q)$ are determined. Further, we provide a general…
In this paper we create many examples of hyperbolic groups with subgroups satisfying interesting finiteness properties. We give the first examples of subgroups of hyperbolic groups which are of type $FP_2$ but not finitely presented. We…
Using Cohen's classification of symplectic reflection groups, we prove that the parabolic subgroups, that is, stabilizer subgroups, of a finite symplectic reflection group are themselves symplectic reflection groups. This is the symplectic…
We consider membership problems for rational subsets of the semigroup of $2\times 2$ matrices over $\mathbb{Q}$. For a semigroup $M$, the rational subsets $\mathrm{Rat}(M)$ are defined as the sets accepted by NFAs whose transitions are…
We show that the probability for a finitely generated subgroup of the modular group, of size $n$, to be almost malnormal or non-parabolic, tends to 0 as $n$ tends to infinity -- where the notion of the size of a subgroup is based on a…
We describe the structure of finite groups with $\mathfrak{F}$-subnormal or self-normalizing primary cyclic subgroups when $\mathfrak{F}$ is a subgroup-closed saturate superradical formation containing all nilpotent groups. We prove that…
Let $G$ be a classical group defined over a finite field. We consider the following fundamental problems concerning conjugacy in $G$: 1. List a representative for each conjugacy class of $G$. 2. Given $x \in G$, describe the centralizer of…
Motivated by the study of the conjugacy problem for outer automorphism of free groups, we develop the algorithmic theory of the free-by-cyclic group produced by unipotent linearly growing automorphisms of f.g. free groups. We compute…
We prove for residually finite groups the following long standing conjecture: the number of twisted conjugacy classes of an automorphism of a finitely generated group is equal (if it is finite) to the number of finite dimensional…
Let $G$ denote the projective special linear group $\text{PSL}(2,q)$, for a prime power $q$. It is shown that a finite 2-subgroup of the group $V(\mathbb{Z}G)$ of augmentation 1 units in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ of $G$ is…
